"...And the premiere episode in a sentence? It's a ripper. An absolute bloody ripper. And if you're a fan of the original series there's more than a few moments where you will squeal with delight. .. ...At the heart of The X-Files now, as it always was, is an ages-old clash of ideologies. Mulder, the believer, a man of faith and hope, versus Scully, the scientist, whose logic must deny faith. Both positions have come a long way since the original, but at their heart they remain true to their original selves. The first episode of the six foreshadows a compelling new series, with hints that it will ultimately knit together many of the show's touchstones, such as the abduction of Mulder's sister, The X-Files, Roswell and the origin of the show's iconic Smoking Man. There are also lovely moments, including the return of FBI assistant director Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi), and a conclusion -the details of which we will omit here - which will send fans into paroxysms of pleasure, horror and delight. (Clue: yep, it's him, and he's super creepy.) ..." link
